An adaptation of the classic novel and beloved films, Freaky Friday follows teenager Ellie Blake and her mother, Katherine, on the weirdest, strangest, craziest, freakiest day of their whole lives. Try as they might, Katherine and Ellie just can’t seem to understand each other: Ellie wants her mom to stop trying to change her, while Katherine wants her daughter to be the best version of herself that she can be. On a fateful Friday, the day before Katherine’s wedding, something magical occurs when mother and daughter swap bodies. Now, both will have to一literally一spend a day walking in each other’s shoes, learning about each other and the struggles each goes through and forging a new mother-daughter relationship in this hilarious, energetic, and moving musical comedy.

Director’s note

This show has been a joy to direct. The cast and all of the people who helped are amazing at the talents that they have lent to the play.

I hope you look over the list of how many people have their fingerprints on the show. It takes an army to pull a musical together. I appreciate each and every one of them! They were willing to step in where I lack the abilities to make the play so fabulous! A GIANT thank you to all of you!
